You are not absolutely wrong. I was not sure whether I should engage in
"deeper" meditation (would it be safe, would it screw up my studies etc.)
since I tend to think meditation is not necessary when k is active enough.

Perhaps I have not phrased myself too clearly. I believe in total
submission, surrender, non-grasping. The only think I want control in is
my sanity. Meditation is control, but it's control to push beyond control,
so to speak.

Again, I don't really even think in terms of control (I don't believe in
free will).

I don't think anything is sacred, but I understand you will disagree (you
were christian, right?). [Equivalent truth: everything is sacred]

Brain.

I think those who like to bloat their spiritual ego by gaining "levels"
should really reconsider their view on life, universe & everything. It's
true that with increased awareness, there may also be more hallucinations
(considering that the brain is operating on a more non-standard state) but
the hallucinations should not be mystified/whatever.
I get the most intense hallucinations when I wake up early and then go
back to sleep (like on sunday, I woke up to watch Formula 1 - Hakkinen
wins the world championship, yahoo - went back to sleep, was not really
easy, experienced total anesthesia of limbs and strong tingling, roaring
sensations in the spine). I don't give *any* value to these
hallucinations, as I understand it's just some stuff I get as a by-product
of my k.

Trying to hinder? I never said anything about trying to hinder anything,
instead I believe we really should not play with it (too much) and thus we
should not try to *aggressively* direct or raise kundalini.

I´m afraid this means nothing to me (I don't believe in god that gives us
anything).

Er... my parsing engine has some problems chewing that sentence, but I
really don't see that I have some problem of this sort that I should deal
with.
